They finished hanging the drywall in both the main house and carriage house this week. We ordered the light fixtures this week and now I have to make a decision on the interior colors. They will paint the interior before they lay the hardwood floors.
They also finished the metal cap on the chimney this week.
They have finished painting the carriage house and the shingles are on the roof. You can see the covered walkway that connects to the house has been started too.
They have almost finished siding the main house. They will start painting soon.
The siding has started to go up - I couldn't get pictures because it rained all day today. So I thought I'd post a picture for Kalli of Peter and the alligator.
Here is our back porch which will be screened in. The hole will be an outdoor fireplace.
Saw him on hole #5. Kalli needs to ask her mother if she would get close enough to pose for a picture with this guy.
This guy was slinking back into the water....I didn't know they go in backwards OR that they are more afraid of us than we are of them! Luckily, our house isn't close to hole # 5 either.
Framing is complete on the main house and now they have begun framing the guest suite in the carriage house. Things are happening quickly now....I picked out all of the bathroom fixtures this week and met with the "Smart House" man today. I'll explain later what a "smart house" is, but it looks like we are going to have one!
The carriage house will have a guest suite upstairs. This is known as the 'outhouse' to the Hunters Pointe Crowd.
We saw this gator between the men's & women's tee boxes on the 11th hole. Luckily that is not close to our house at all!
Now you can kinda tell what the house is going to look like. The window over the front porch will be Cindi's office.
It's hard to tell what this building's gonna look like, isn't it? This picture was taken from the side porch of the house.
That's an awful lot of lumber! It is a good thing the lumber was ordered before the hurricane or we would have had trouble getting enough.
Peter is trying to claim this area of the master bedroom for his office. Cindi doesn't agree....
They began framing this week. The builder says this will go quickly......we shall see.
